DIY Request: Removing stock midpipes and axle back exhaust

mpatrone · 08-10-2011, 08:08 PM

And/or DIY of Berk Full Race/Sport System.

I realize there is a 128i post for installing BMW performance exhaust, but it doesn't show how to completely remove the stock exhaust (everything but downpipes). Would be nice to see which bolts/panels need removing, and general instructions for noobs like myself...

google 135i exhaust install. Even if its doesn't come up as a berk exhaust install, any install for pipes is going to be the same for the most part. I think i used the borla or corsa exhaust DIY i found to put my Berk down pipe back system on. It honestly doesn't take much time, you just need the right tools, good secure ramps (or a lift would make it so much easier). Don't think you can't do this one, just give yourself the time and you will be able to do it no problem.
